The band was founded in the winter of 2004. The band had four members and called them selves ‘’The Four Horsemen’’. The members were Magnus Löfroth (drums), Matias Muotio (guitar), Otto Eklund (guitar/vocals) and Emil Soininen (bass). They played Metallica covers but after some time Otto and Emil left the band for some reason, but Matias and Magnus were still playing.
They then asked Harry Sjöberg(guitar) to join them and changed their name. The new name was ‘’Black Guardians’’. For some time the trio played mostly Metallica covers but in the end of the summer they decided to write some own music, which was the birth of the song ‘’Road to Nowhere’’ which was the first song they ever wrote. In the cold winter nights of 2005, Markus Nyholm (bass) reinforced the band, the bass really added that little something to the music which had been missing.
In the end of the year 2005 the studio was booked, the band was recording their first demo at Test Music Studio, with Christer Rönnholm. The title is Road to Nowhere.
They recorded their second demo in october 2006, the recorded songs were Insanity, Arapes and Cursed Souls. After some negotiations with Tomas Ståhl the band teamed up with SSG Management Ltd and changed their name to Metaphor.
The summer of 2007 Metaphor spent most of their time in the rehearsal room playing music and drinking together. The band got offered to be a part of the compilation CD "Kill City Vol.3" with the song "Wasted Generation". The CD has now been released in the entire USA.
